1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The safe use of drugs during pregnancy depends on several factors including the time of application, the type of drug and its dose. In the present review, the effect of certain therapeutic drugs on pregnancy is first described using general principles, followed by a more focused discussion on the type of adverse effects related to specific cardiovascular drugs used during pregnancy. In particular, adverse events related to the use of antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic drugs and anticoagulants are described, followed by the characterization of congenital cardiovascular defects resulting from the use of various drugs during pregnancy. Finally, various methods used to obtain information on the topic are described, and the need for carefully designed clinical trials is stressed.
